- A new announcement on a Swiss retailer shows the GPU Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB of Acer at $ 566 depending on the conversions of currency
- AMD should unveil the Radeon RX 9060 series in Computex alongside partner cards
- The price can be a reserved space, but inflation of GPU prices can see the price become a reality
The current GPU market is filled with swollen prices for NVIDIA and AMD cards, which can spell bad news for the potential success of the next 8 GB GPUs – and it seems that this could soon be the case for Team Red.
As WCCFTECH reported, the GPU Acer Nitro Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB was registered on a Swiss retailer at $ 566 (around £ 430 / $ 880 in), converted from Swiss Franc. This comes next to the 16 GB model listed at $ 620, and the two GPUs should be unveiled at Computex 2025, which begins on May 20.
It is important to highlight the high possibility that these prices be reserved spaces; This has already occurred with the launch of the Radeon RX 9070 XT, which revealed a launch price of $ 699 via Micro Center. Fortunately, it was indeed a reserved space because it was launched at $ 599, but it did not last very long due to the retailers considerably increasing prices.
However, if the price of $ 566 for the 8 GB model is legitimate (or at least near this figure), AMD and its partners could be in a difficult fight to convince consumers that it is simply a GPU which is worth buying in 2025. Nowadays, 8 GB GPUS are simply not powerful enough to fight variant.
It should be noted that the WCCFTECH points out that these prices are probably reserved spaces, as they also include lists for GPUs RX 9070 XT above the retail price. Be that as it may, the current state of the GPU market will probably increase prices at absurd levels, and the GPU lists of Best Buy are an excellent example.
If the retail price of the 8 GB GPU is anywhere nearly $ 500, it will be dead on arrival
I do not need to emphasize how the 8-good GB GPUs are in 2025, because the negative consensus surrounding the RTX 5060 TI of Nvidia shows it clear. These GPUs do not make enough VRAM to manage the heavy load which comes from the games today, and I do not think that anyone is ready to pay too much for a sub-perform GPU.
I am convinced that the alleged price of $ 566 (depending on price conversions) is a reserved space, but that does not make me feel much more confident – it is because the trend of partner cards and their prices indicates that it can cost much more after launch.
This happened with the Radeon RX 9070 XT, which you will now find it difficult to find at its retail price of $ 599. While no one should pay more than $ 599 for a GPU supposed to be mid -range, the RX 9070 XT is at least a valid GPU. Potentially, the same cannot be said of the RX 9060 XT 8GB GPU, but I hope it works well.
This should be a warning for AMD and its partners; TO DO not Price all GPUs of 8 GB to come anywhere near these prices, because I can almost guarantee that they will be dead on arrival …
